AbstractBackground/purposeVentilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is one of the most frequent causes of morbidity and mortality among mechanically ventilated patients in critical care. Previous meta-analyses demonstrated that oral chlorhexidine (CHX) is beneficial in preventing VAP. Several new studies on oral hygiene as a preventive measure for VAP have been published. Considering all the currently available evidence together, an updated meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of oral CHX in preventing VAP.Materials and methodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify clinical trials comparing oral hygiene care using CHX with conventional care in terms of the incidence of VAP. Two reviewers independently assess...
